Chapter 221 Six Years of Lingering, Seeing My True Nature
"One by one, don't worry about it!" After Xie Kuo left, Yun Fenghuang called Qingren to him and ordered her to deal with the aftermath, so that Chunjia would not find out the clues, and said with emotion, "I thought it was a little bit of a child. Er'er's mind is not a big deal, but what about the result? To dare to play tricks in front of His Majesty, this kind of courage, I may not have the courage when I am as old as them."
The Qing people said softly: "They know that the empress is there, otherwise, how could they be so bold?"
Yun Fenghuang sighed softly, and said: "Yes, I can protect them for a day when I am alive. But... if there is something good or bad about me..."
"Bah, bah, what did the empress say?!" The Qing people hurriedly said, "The empress has a lot of blessings, so nothing will happen! Look at the concubine next door, she has a son and a daughter, isn't it good? "
Isn't that the protection of Ben Gong?
Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, if there is no Ben Gong, it would be a problem whether Concubine De is still here.
But Bengong can only rely on himself!
She had no intention of arguing with the Qing people on this issue, and only said: "I always prefer Meng'er and Yu'er, but these two children are filial and filial. After all, they lack some ambition and city government. Although Kuo'er is not my niece and niece After all, it is her own flesh and blood. Since she has such thoughts, it’s okay for me to help her a little bit. Ask Chen Jing to look around the capital and see if there is anything suitable for her.”
After a pause, he ordered again, "I have been resting on the couch for the past two days, and I will ask the imperial physician to prescribe anti-fetal medicine tomorrow, understand?"
Concubine Min's niece and niece were murdered in the Huanhua Palace, and almost died on the spot, so that the news that the concubine was stimulated - her fetal image was unstable and she might have a miscarriage spread throughout the palace the next day.
The queen was a little surprised when she heard it at first, and asked the left and right if she wanted to send something over to show her heart, to show the tolerance of her main palace, but she was reminded: "Your Majesty, if the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, is still in the palace, Huanhua Palace If something goes wrong, the first person to be suspected is the Spring Palace. But now that the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, is gone, and you say something went wrong with the imperial concubine, who is the most suspicious?"
Gu Zhen said casually: "What else can I say? It doesn't matter whether the palace is jealous or hateful, there are many concubines who secretly don't like imperial concubines! Especially the concubines of the imperial daughters. Except for Zhaoqing, other imperial concubines With such a grown-up, the number of times I see His Majesty is probably not as many as Xie Meng and sister Xie Meng's Aunt's Glorious Saint! Who is happy?"
She is not happy!
She doesn't have a princess under her knees, and the princes are not her own. That's it, the queen thinks that the children in front of her, the number of times she sees her own father, may not be as good as Xie Meng and the others, so why not grit her teeth secretly? Not to mention those who worked so hard to give birth to the princess.
But there is no other way, the emperor would be willing to go to her place if the imperial concubine is so pampered?
I can only endure it.
When the queen said this, she felt that she was looking at her left and right, and she was a little silent.
She was stunned for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she subconsciously sat up straight: "Could it be possible that Your Majesty still doubts me?!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is wise and mighty, so naturally you won't suspect Your Majesty." He thought about it, the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, has left, and now someone is murdering the imperial concubine, how could the Zhonggong not be among the suspects? Gently reminded, "But the imperial concubine has always been suspicious, this..."
Queen, wake up!
Who doesn't know that the imperial concubine is invincible in the palace, except that her status is lower than yours, and she can't directly embarrass her loving mother, the empress dowager?
Now that His Majesty's two queen mothers have left to return to their hometown, even if you don't bother Xuanqing Palace, can Xuanqing Palace let you go?
Even if this matter has nothing to do with Zhonggong, but it still can't stand the concubine's scheming, who knows if the fire will be set on the Chongchang Palace?
"..." Gu Zhen realized the seriousness of the problem at this moment. After Chunjia's heart-to-heart talk, the empress still trusts the emperor now, and feels that he will not inexplicably suspect that she will murder the imperial concubine, but what the servants said makes sense , She doesn't trouble the concubine, it doesn't mean the concubine doesn't trouble her either!
She calmed down and said, "I'm going to meet Your Majesty right now, please His Majesty investigate thoroughly to find out who is so bold to murder the imperial concubine and the emperor's heir!"
"Your Majesty said so." Zuo Zuo was very pleased with the Queen's rationality. After all, if the imperial concubine really wanted to frame the Queen, the Queen's level might not be able to prove her innocence. It would be better to leave the matter to the Emperor.
So Gu Zhen went to look for Chun Jia, and was filled with righteous indignation and sympathized with the imperial concubine.
It's just that the emperor's attitude was a little cold. After listening with a calm expression, he said softly: "I understand, is there anything else? If not, I still have some government affairs to deal with here."
Gu Zhen has long been used to him being indifferent to himself, so he didn't think too much about it, so he got up and saluted after hearing the words: "I'm disturbing Your Majesty, I'm going to leave now."
She didn't know that she had left the Taichu Palace, so Chunjia ordered Yanyin to check the latest news of Gu's family: "The empress is not capable of murdering a noble concubine, but Gu's is not. Now that the matter has just spread, the empress has come over." Asking me to conduct a thorough investigation is not necessarily a cover-up. I remember that when the summer vacation last year, the imperial concubine was not yet pregnant, and she had murdered others, the empress was not so active!"
Seeing Yan Yin's response, he was silent for a while, and finally ordered, "Before the two queen mothers left the palace... also check the people and things they have come into contact with."
"The servant obeys."
Watching Yan Yin go out to give orders, Chun Jia put the vermilion pen on the pen mountain, and looked at the jade bonsai not far away, slightly fascinated.
The face of the emperor who was in the prime of life was still young and handsome, but there were obvious marks between his brows.
He subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed it, and when Yan Yin came back to continue serving the pen and ink, he had already returned to his expressionless and majestic appearance.
In the harem, in the Hall of Huanhua, Yun Fenghuang listened to the attendant telling the Queen how to find Chunjia in person for the matter of Xie Meng, and curled her lips contemptuously: "This idea must have been given by her left and right, she herself, at this moment I'm afraid I haven't reacted yet..."
She gently brushed the fan in her hand over her face, tapped the bamboo mat again and again, thoughtfully, "What did the imperial doctor say this morning?"
"The imperial doctor said that the mother's fetal image is stable and she will not give birth prematurely." The Qing man knelt on the footrest, pinched her leg, and said softly, "Of course, he has already prescribed the anti-fetal medicine, saying that if the mother is serious If you drink it, it won't hinder you."
In this way, even if Yun Fenghuang activates according to the delivery date, it will be regarded as the imperial physician's ability to protect the fetus, rather than deliberately deceiving the emperor.
Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes, thought quickly for a moment, and suddenly said: "Go and ask him personally, if I take the birth-inducing medicine at this moment, will there be any hindrance to the emperor's heir?"
"Your Majesty?!" The Qing people were shocked, and quickly persuaded, "Your Majesty, you must not do this! It's only a few days away, and now His Majesty has pity for you, but why risk your own body and the emperor's heirs?" ?”
"Because it's only a few days away, I don't think there will be any serious problems!" Yun Fenghuang said coldly, "Besides, I have to ask the imperial doctor... If the doctor has a solution, then why worry?"
"But……"
"But what?" Yun Fenghuang interrupted impatiently, "Even if I give birth at full term, is it possible that you can guarantee that the family will be peaceful and the heir will be healthy and intelligent? These are uncertain things! What does it matter if it is produced a few days in advance!"
The Qing people leaned on the edge of the couch and tried to persuade: "Your Majesty, don't be so radical! It is true that you will give birth at full term, and everything may not be as you wish. But Madam, please think about it. In case, please forgive me for saying a word of punishment, and I am not afraid of anything. Ten thousand is just in case! How much regret will the empress have at that time?!"
Yun Fenghuang turned his head to look at her, and said slowly: "Men Qing, I would like to ask you, if the birth of this palace goes well, and if I get a boy in one fell swoop, and the emperor's heir is very intelligent, do you think His Majesty will change his mind, Abandoning Zhonggong's legitimate son and making him the heir apparent instead?"
The Qing people were startled, and hesitated: "This..."
This is of course impossible!
When she was thinking about the appropriate wording, Yun Fenghuang sneered and said: "Yes, this is impossible. At least it is impossible at the moment! Because so far, His Majesty's intention to establish a son-in-law is very firm. The prince is four years old this year, and the twelfth prince is three years old. In fact, children grow up very quickly. In three or two years, they will be able to go to school! The twelve princes are in trouble, and His Majesty will immediately send them to school. He has stayed in the side hall to take care of him till now! Although Bengong understands that this is a trick he does not trust the queen, he is afraid that a good son will not be able to support the queen if he goes back to the queen, but... when Zhaoqing broke his leg, His Majesty mentioned that the child What about going to Taichu Palace to recuperate?"
Qing Ren said: "Your Majesty, this is different... let alone that Her Highness Princess Zhaoqing is an imperial concubine, how can His Majesty have the same trust in you and Empress Empress?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "Because the queen is incompetent, even if His Majesty doesn't like her, he will take more care of people and things that His Majesty cares about. Because I make His Majesty feel smart and capable, so here in this Palace, he always On the one hand, it’s reassuring, on the other hand, it’s worrying.”
Rest assured that the noble concubine has more than enough protection for herself, and she can still have children under her knees; worry that the noble concubine will not only take care of herself, but also have the spare power to murder other people and things.
"In fact, Your Majesty has always been hovering between trust and distrust of me. He appreciates my talent, but also fears my talent. The reason why I have such a status now is nothing more than because his heart is still there. On this palace." Yun Fenghuang raised his hand to caress his cheek while speaking, Chunjia entered the palace hastily at the age of fifteen in the early spring of the seventh year.
This year is the early summer of the thirteenth year, and she is twenty-one years old.
At this time, even if she is still beautiful and beautiful, it is considered that her best years are over.
Yun Fenghuang said indifferently, "Could it be that two years ago, there were many incidents in the harem, and you thought that there would be no more newcomers in this palace? Or do you think that the newcomers must have been no match for me? I just gave birth to my first child at this age. When the child's hair is tied up, what do you think is the possibility that this palace will still monopolize the king's heart?"
"A concubine like Ben Gong who has no family background, do you know what is the most taboo? The most taboo is to count on the future."
"Because today I don't know if there will be tomorrow, this year is full of favors, and next spring is uncertain and desolate and quiet...Don't expect too much from the king's longevity, and don't too expect the king's nostalgia."
"People come and go from Sangong Sixth Courtyard, no matter how much kindness he has, he can't share it."
"What's the benefit, it's true if you hold it in your hand first."
"Besides, I have today, I have future, I have always relied on myself, not my own flesh and blood, understand?"
Concubine Min looked coldly at the dumbfounded and bewildered Qing, and said slowly, "Go and ask the imperial doctor now, and be quick...as long as the oxytocin medicine is not harmful to me, I will give birth today! The murder is fierce." The real culprit of the miscarriage caused by the son involved the suspicion of the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, and Uncle Zhaowu's mansion! Bengong only had such a child six years after entering the palace, and this birth was also the most difficult one that Bengong has encountered so far Guan, I don't care how many nets they have prepared, but even if I can't make it through, whoever murders me, or who might murder me, don't think about it!"
Watching Qingren get up from the pedals and rush out in a hurry, Yun Fenghuang gently caressed his lower abdomen, his complexion was frosty, there was no pity, no regret, no guilt in his eyes, only calm.
She has already thought about it!
If she gave birth smoothly, it means that the murder of Queen Mother Yuan and Gu Shi was not completely successful; if her delivery was not smooth, or if the child was born with any good or bad, then of course both parties are to blame!
When Yun Fenghuang is still alive, of course he is justly begging the emperor for justice; if the misfortune disappears, he will stab Chunjia in his heart for the Empress Dowager Yuan and the Gu family, which will never be healed!
As for whether doing so is fair to the child in her womb...
Yun Fenghuang didn't care at all.
Since she has come to this day everything depends on herself, so why is her priority not on herself?
When the night was approaching, Chunjia, who had just fallen asleep, was carefully called out by Yan Yin: "Your Majesty, someone from the Huanhua Palace said it was the imperial concubine... who gave birth prematurely!"
